Rechts neben den Zooterrassen steht auf der Wiese diese von dem Bildhauer Wilhelm Riedisser 1903 geschaffene Bronzestatue "Sitzender Jüngling". Auf einem Naturstein, der wie ein Hocker gestaltet ist, sitzt ein nackter Jüngling. Seinen Körper dreht er leicht nach links und schaut so den ankommenden Besuchern entgegen.

To the right of the zoo terraces stands on a meadow this bronze statue "Sitzender Jüngling" ("Seated Youth") created by the sculptor Wilhelm Riedisser in 1903. On a natural stone that is shaped like a stool sits a naked young man. His body he turns slightly left and look towards to incoming visitors.
